An irradiation-alkaline pretreatment of kenaf core for improving the sugar yield

Renewable Energy, 2015
Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) has received considerable attention as a renewable resource because of its fast growth and low lignin content. In the present study, a combination pretreatment of kenaf core using electron beam irradiation (EBI) and dilute alkali was investigated to improve the sugar yield in enzymatic hydrolysis.

Effects of Kenaf core on properties of poly(lactic acid) bio‐composite

Polymer Composites, 2013
In this study, biodegradable poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/Kenaf core composites with different amount of Kenaf core were prepared using screw extrusion. The Structure, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and biodegradation of bio‐composites are evaluated. FTIR result shows the possible interaction between the Ken core and PLA matrix.

Water absorption characteristics of kenaf core to use as animal bedding material

Industrial Crops and Products, 2009
Kenaf is grown these days as a minor fibre crop in some Asian countries, but also in the US and recently in Southern European countries such as Italy. The yield of extracted bast fibres is below 1/3 of that of the kenaf stem weight. In the US and Europe a profitable outlet for the remaining woody core is important for economical production of the crop.

Ground kenaf core as a filtration aid

Industrial Crops and Products, 2001
Abstract The objective of this study was to examine the filtration characteristics of ground kenaf core, a waste material generated during the production of kenaf bast fibers for paper. The constant-pressure precoat filtration characteristics of ground kenaf core were compared to commercial diatomaceous earth (DE).

Rigid polyurethane and kenaf core composite foams

Polymer Engineering & Science, 2014
Rigid PU foams are valuable in many construction applications. Kenaf is a bast fiber plant where the surface stem skin provides bast fibers whose strength‐to‐weight ratio competes with glass fiber. The higher volume product of the kenaf core is an under‐investigated area in composite applications. The naturally porous structure of kenaf‐core provides a

Thermal Analysis of Kenaf Sandwich Core Panel

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
The thermal stability of kenaf sandwich panel core structures are presented in this paper. Sandwich core structures tested are of varying kenaf percentage being 10, 20 and 30 wt%. The result indicated that all composite have two step degradation processes due to the presence of kenaf in epoxy.

Chemical and instrumental characterization of maturing kenaf core and bast

Industrial Crops and Products, 1999
Abstract A limiting factor in the production of bast fiber from kenaf is retting, the process by which the fiber is freed from the non-fibrous tissue. An objective of this study was to evaluate the variation in cell wall chemistry with maturity for different cultivars, particularly in relation to lignin and retting.
